Majolica Majorca & Maquillage Christmas '08

Pics of Majolica Majorca's Christmas collection. I'll definitely be picking up the two Majolumina powder-in-puffs which are a steal at only 1365yen compared to 3990yen for the Jill Stuart version. The Majolook palette also looks promising! There are 2 palettes in the collection, both of which are permanent. The Lash Gorgeous Wing in golden brown is limited edition.

Also out on 21 Nov is Maquillage's limited edition Jewelling Palette and Jewel Rich Gel, which is a water-based gel with large shimmer particles that can be used on the eyes and body.

The Maquillage palettes just landed at the Shiseido counters in Singapore too! I was quite surprised by how silky and smooth the texture of the eyeshadows is. The highlighter shade below the four eyeshadows is not as smooth though and feels more dry and less velvety. The color payoff was also pretty good but the colors were not really that tempting to me. I also quite liked the Jewel Rich Gel which dries down quite nicely and is not too over the top.

Thanks for reading my blog! The Majolook does look quite similar to BR762. I'll try to compare the two once I get my hands on the Christmas collection!

My experience with Majolica Majorca mascaras is that the new revamped versions tend not to be that different from the original. Lash Expander Neo was introduced just about 1 year after the original Lash Expander. I'll report on the new mascara if I get to try it.

Dear Erica,You can order the items very easily from either Adambeauty.com or Ichibankao.com. Both take Paypal for payment. Adambeauty tends to have more reasonable prices but I think Ichibankao may have a wider selection and availability of stock as it is based in Japan unlike Adambeauty which is based in Hong Kong and can sell out of stuff quite quickly. Good luck!
